I still haven’t figured out how to make coconut flour recipes vegan. Every time I remove the eggs from the recipe, I’m left with a gooey mess that cannot be fixed no matter how long I leave it in the oven.

If you know the trick to vegan coconut flour baking and are willing to share the secret, I have loads of recipe ideas for us!

Like my gluten-free fruit and seed snack bread, the slices of this banana bread are mini sized. I don’t know about you, but I’m not a huge fan of the larger-than-life slices of fruit-based bread. Making a mini loaf means I can pack two slices in my lunch along with a dollop of coconut oil, seed butter or a piece of fruit, and snack on it throughout the day instead of enjoying one large piece and having it be gone in an instant.

Preheat oven to 350F and line an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper across both sides for easy lifting. Set aside.

Combine wet ingredients in a large bowl with a hand or stand mixer.

Whisk dry ingredients in a small bowl. Once incorporated, add to the wet mix and mix until smooth.

Drop batter into prepared loaf pan and bake in preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool on a cooling rack for 30-45 minutes before slicing and serving.

Keep stored in the fridge for 3-5 days, or slice and place in the freezer.

I chose to use soy milk for this recipe, but any milk would do the trick. I bet homemade flax milk would be really tasty, too!

If you don’t have coconut flour, I’m not sure what you could use as a replacement as coconut flour is very dry and requires quite a bit of liquid to yeild the right result. If you’re in a banana mood, but don’t have coconut flour, you could try out a banana bread protein cake, one of my favorite ways to enjoy bananas!

If you’re allergic to bananas, I bet this recipe would work with apple sauce, too!

This recipe’s as easy as they come. Whisk your dry ingredients,

mix the wet ingredients with a hand mixer and add dry to wet. Then combine everything with a colorful spatula (because it’s better that way).

Press into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper (will make your life so much easier), and bake!

The hardest part of the whole process is waiting for the bread to cool while your house fills with that fresh baked banana smell!

Praise

I would like to thank you for website, podcast, You Tube videos, weekly emails, and The Keto Diet Cookbook. I have been keto for about 3 weeks now and I feel like I have a tremendous amount of support from you. I have struggled with my body for years and ever since I found you, I have been rethinking my whole image philosophy. Thank you!

 Kelli

Love your book and love your podcasts. I had an issue with my heart a year ago and it scared me into taking that expensive blood test for food allergies. I had severe toxins from candida and horrible intolerance to sugar and turkey, among other things. My cardiologist said it wasn’t food allergies causing my heart issues, but for the first time I said “not yet” to a doctor wanting to do surgery. Six weeks later with no sugar, low carbs and healthy fats…heart issue is GONE! My doctor was baffled, and one year later I am 50 pounds less.

 Pam

I’ve been devouring your No Sugarcoating podcast; I love you and Amber. I’m about halfway through the Fat Fueled Audiobook. I truly appreciate Leanne’s positive, “listen to your body” message. Please keep doing what you are doing. I am feeling so much better eating this way.

 Winni

Throughout my keto experience, Leanne has been a powerful support system. Leanne taught me to give myself grace, to keep a good perspective, to listen to what my body telling me and to embrace my own individual keto experience. Her approach to life, keto, and health is one of balance, breaks the diet dogma, and really encourages people to be the expert of their own body. Leanne has inspired and empowered me to live my best life, to find what works for my body and stay focused on listening to the voice within.

 Katharine

I just wanted​ to send you a message telling you how much I enjoy listening to your podcast. I found you on Instagram right as I decided to try keto. You have been so inspirational and I have learned so much from you. I tell my friends that I binge listened to your podcast because I listened to every episode since April this year, and I have enjoyed every one of them. I listen to them mostly while I’m running and get to the end of my run without even realizing it because I have been so focused on the information I’m hearing. I also wanted to tell thank you for the quality of the content that you share. I just wanted to share with you that I have enjoyed your show from the beginning but now that I’m caught up and trying to find another show I realized just how much I enjoyed it. Thank you for all you do for this community.

 Jamie

I find your information very helpful. Recommended recipes help me stay on track and carb ups keep me happy and healthy. I found the key to a convenient, satisfying eating style and your advice has been an important part of that. Thank you.

 Lorraine

I have a fat disorder called Lipedema that makes my legs swell and makes it very hard to lose weight. It wasn’t until I found the Fat Fueled approach to keto that I was successful in losing 45lbs. Through a ketogenic diet, exercise & compression, I’m on my way to great things!

 Nicole

I’m loving your book! I love your approach and the fact that you do not stick to a “diet” 100%, but rather pick out what feels good for you and what works. I also like that when reading your book, I feel like I’m talking to a very good friend. I‘m just getting started with keto, but I have to say that I already love it. I feel much better than just going low-carb (which I have done for almost 6 months now). I do not have so many cravings anymore, intermittent fasting is so easy now, and my digestion has never been better.

 Sonja

I had been at a plateau in my weight loss for over a month. After watching your videos about fasting and carbing-up, I’m finally back into losing weight! Thanks for all the great tips. I enjoy learning about keto and all of its aspects.

I’ve only been doing keto for a couple months, but so far my depression has lifted, my knee injury was healed quick, my sinus allergies aren’t bothering me, and my hair is growing wonderfully fast! I get a lot of inspiration from Leanne – thank you for sharing your life with the rest of us! Now I’m keto for life!

 Earline

I have had issues with my menstrual cycle and being on oral contraceptives. I saw my physician and she is supportive of my whole food keto lifestyle and is supportive of me going off hormones for birth control. I want to thank you for being so open about your experiences and inspiring me to find my path. I think I’m on the right path now to find what works to be my best self.

 Amanda

I tried keto paleo a couple years ago and felt like I failed. I obsessively tracked everything and I was always tired! So I went back to just paleo with more carbs and it was so awful! I gained 20 pounds, but more importantly, I got so tired and depressed that I could not even get out of bed on some days! So, I have returned to keto paleo, but you have set me free! I eat more intuitively and am not a slave to tracking. You “gave me permission” to do this stress-free. I also no longer feel guilty when I need to carb up for a workout (I am a triathlete). I love how I feel with this eating lifestyle plan and now, thanks to you, I can stick with it!

 Lisa

I’m new to the keto diet and am so grateful I’ve found healthfulpursuit.com– down to earth, approachable, holistic, but most of all, speaking to women’s specific needs. I find the lack of shame and the use of real food to be refreshing. Thank you for being a rational, reasonable voice. It’s the honesty that caught my eye.

 Tia

I found your podcast just before I decided to try Keto. I was on my way home from a weekend in Boston and was driving back to NJ (February 2017) I listed to your podcast the entire ride and not only did I learn so much about Keto but I was fully inspired. I continue to eat Keto and listen to every podcast every week; it continues to inspire and teach me. I have lost 17 pounds and truly upped my game when in comes to my work outs — keto (and Leanne) have changed my life.
